The North Face El Lobo 65 Pack
$249.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Gives you access to your stuff on top, sides and bottom - very convenient. Hood can become a quick "fanny pack" if you want to leave the campsite for a bit. Hip and shoulder belts feel secure and comfortable.
The Cons:Strings on the zippers can come off occasionally. Sleeping bag pouch is awkward to use, need to have just the right sleeping bag for it. Doesn't include a waterproof cover, needs to be purchased separately.
The North Face El Lobo 65 Pack is a 65 liter pack which combines North Face's Primero and Crestone packs. It borrows the Primero's X Radial endoskeleton, hipbelt/shoulder strap configuration, and lightweight disposition with the Crestone's durable shell and water-resistant zips on the hood making it an excellent choice for the outdoor enthusiast who enjoys multi-day backpacking trips.
